So far, there hasn't been any proof that the higher bandwidth or greater storage has given a superior picture. While Disney tried to do this with the Pirates movies, recent reviews have have said that Paramount's Black Snake Moan is just as good PQ and both BD and HD have the same AVC encoding.From the Highdefdigest review:
"Boasting superb visuals equal to 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest,' 'Black Snake Moan' features reference quality video that quite simply has to be seen to be believed. The Blu-ray and HD DVD versions are identical to my eye and fans of both formats should be ecstatic with this release."
Pity I'm not interested in the movie.
